The profit earned after selling an article for Tk. 3,362 is the same as the loss incurred after selling the article for Tk. 2,36. At what selling price will a trader make a 20% profit on this article?
- A. 4639.4
- B. 4639.4
- C. 4639.4
- D. 4639.4
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Let the cost price of the article be Tk. x.
∴ 3362 − x = x − 2346
| ∴ x = C.P. = | 3362 + 2346 | = 2,854/ - |
| 2 |
∴ S.P. corresponding to a 20% profit = 1.2 × 2854 = Tk. 3,424.8/ -
Hence, option D is correct.
